Mini Moment: Broccoli

from Heart of the Homestead Family · host homesteadingpodcast

Broccoli is finally in the kitchen—whether you grew it yourself or picked it up locally! 🥦 In this episode, we chat about: Dealing with pests and cleaning your broccoli (goodbye, hidden worms 👋). How we eat it fresh, roast it, or toss it into stir-fries and salads. Easy ways to preserve broccoli: blanching, freezing, and storing for later. Why you should never toss the stems (hello, soups and purees!). Creative ways to make broccoli fun for kids—even peanut butter + broccoli! If you’ve got an abundance of broccoli, this one’s full of tips to enjoy every bit.   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel!   And don't forget to mark your calendars for our "Simmer & Share" event happening November 8!
